The Lichfield Mysteries is searching for more actors who would like to be part of something amazing this year.

There are parts still available in some of the 27 plays which will be performed in Lichfield the May Day bank holiday.

Experience is not necessary as people will be working with directors during rehearsals in the run-up to the production on May 6 and 7.

Many of the roles available do not require people to learn lines – although some speaking parts have still to be cast.

Administrator and production manager Jill Taylor said: “Some of our actors are first-time performers and the Mysteries is a great way to give acting a go.

“The main thing about joining in with the Mysteries is that everyone has a good time, enjoys the rehearsals and has the satisfaction of performing in front of audiences in Market Square and in the Cathedral.
